Invictus

Saturday, December 12th, 2009

I watched this movie, out yesterday. I was especially interested as I have done some research into South Africa and Nelson Mandela in the course of my job for www.peopletopeople.com. We travel delegations regularly to South Africa (and around the world) promoting peace and fulfilling the dreams and life’s work of such great men as […]

Inspiration
What is the rare element from which all good flows?
Some say all is formed from atoms and molecules
Held together by the breath of God

GOD IS…!
Exodus 3:14
Life is not fair…God Is!
We are not in Control…God Is!
We are not Who we Live to Please…God Is!
We are not the Giver of our Talents…God Is!

We are not able to See the Whole Picture…God Is!
The Devil is not Going to Win…God IS!
-Gregory W. Naker

President’s Day Musing

Remembering what others have done for us ties the world together in one unbroken chain of love and thankful responsibility.

As Responsibilities Increase, Rights Decrease

“For everyone to whom much is given, from him much will be required; and to whom much has been committed, of him they will ask the more.” Luke 12:48
I never quite understood this verse until I read my daily email from John C. Maxwell yesterday. He makes a very good & Biblical point. What do […]

This will make you feel as well as think!

The ‘Why’ Behind Our Paradigm . . .

Friday, April 21st, 2006

Maybe that’s a worn out term since the popularity of Steven Covey and the “Seven Habits of Successful” nuns and such, but paradigm is a good term to describe a person’s attitude.
